The Marketing Insider: A Claritas Podcast

To coincide with Claritas' annual U.S. Hispanic Market Report, we sat down with Ron Cohen, SVP of Practice Leadership at Claritas, and one of the masterminds behind this nearly 40-page treasure trove of data surrounding one of the fastest-growing population segments in the U.S.

Listen to this short and sweet, 15-minute episode of The Marketing Insider | A Claritas Podcast, to learn about the potentially surprising markets where you'll find larger concentrations of Hispanic consumers, how this population's income has shifted in the past couple of years and where it's expected to go in the future, plus understand more about their consumer lifestyle behaviors and preferences, by industry.

One of the best and worst things about the digital ecosystem is the wealth of data available. The flow of information can lead to personalized browsing experiences, but it can also attract nefarious entities who mishandle or abuse what they’re freely able to access. How can companies uncover data usually reserved for walled gardens, while also keeping their customers' privacy up front and center?

On this episode of The Marketing, the cofounder of Cyder, Sukhman Dulay, joins us to introduce The Claritas Data Account – a unique way for consumers to protect their privacy, control their data, and earn rewards in the process. Not only is this a huge benefit to individual consumers, but the zero-party data that companies gain in return means they can better strengthen their relationships with their customers. Listen as Sukhman explains what zero-party data is and why it's important, how the privacy challenges of today helped spark the idea for The Claritas Data Account, what it does to ensure data privacy compliance, and so much more.

Digital audio advertising revenue is expected to grow to over $7B this year and account for more than 40% of all audio ad revenue, according to eMarketer.

On this episode of The Marketing Insider | A Claritas Podcast, we're joined by Claritas' Vice President of Sales, Media Audio, Jason Fialkov who talks about the solutions available for agencies, advertisers, publishers, and more when it comes to digital audio measurement, attribution, and AI. We're also joined by SiriusXM Media's Director of Measurement Partnerships, Joe Macarak who talks about what they look for in a measurement provider that will fit their client's needs, how partnerships tend to evolve over time and why independent and unbiased measurement sources are important to them. He also touches on the challenges that exist in digital audio measurement - like myths, confusion, and the constant need for education - and even shares case studies, plus the details on a cutting edge solution we're uniquely partnering on to bring satellite measurement to clients.

Despite some kids already back in school, we're still in the middle of the summer, which means it's the height of the travel season. Even after summer ends, people will be booking or preparing for their holiday travel to take them away from their homes in just another couple of months. In fact, last year, AAA predicted there to be 115 million U.S. travelers over the holidays.
 
On this episode of The Marketing Insider | A Claritas Podcast, we're joined by the VP of Sales at Claritas, Diane Turner, and the VP of Loyalty and Customer Engagement at Omni Hotels & Resorts, Josh Belkin. Diane begins the podcast by sharing proven marketing practices for the travel and hospitality industry, including how major shifts are impacting the recommendations we make for our clients to ensure they reach, convert, and retain their ideal travel consumer.

Later, Josh joins to share a case study about how Omni Hotels & Resorts used Claritas data to help improve and ultimately relaunch their loyalty program. From understanding which travelers are Omni travelers to identifying which sports teams they should partner with, Josh's interview feels like a playbook that marketers in more than just the travel and hospitality industry can follow to realize results that help them gain market share and connect with their core audiences.

The streaming industry doesn't grow due to new subscribers. That's a thing of the past. Today, it grows when churn is stemmed and when share is stolen. More importantly, growth comes when streaming platforms understand the value and opportunity each individual subscriber offers.
